  • Jessica Rose Housel had her son Joshua three months ago in St James, Missouri, just after she turned 19. When Jessica found out she was pregnant, she decided to keep the baby because she does not believe in abortion or adoption. Her mother, Carolyn Housel, supported her decision and they made a deal. Carolyn will take care of the new baby during the school hours for Jessica so that she would have a chance to finish high school.
